Council Members Propose Budget Amendment and New Traffic Cameras in Spokane

Spokane City Council members Klitzke and Zappone proposed an amendment to the budget that would allocate an additional $800,000 to local libraries. This funding aims to strengthen community resources and ensure residents have access to essential educational materials. In a separate initiative, the city installed new automated traffic safety cameras to enhance road safety measures. A violation warning period will commence on Monday, giving drivers time to acclimate to the new enforcement strategy. These actions reflect the council's commitment to both public safety and educational support.

The budget amendment and traffic camera implementation are expected to foster a more informed and safer community. Spokane's investment in libraries and traffic safety demonstrates a proactive approach to governance. These initiatives collectively aim to enhance the quality of life for Spokane residents.
